Our Lineage
To ensure the authenticity of the teachings, this wisdom flows down through a sampradaya -a lineage of teachers and disciples who then become teachers.
The Vedas where this timeless wisdom is found is not a product of human intellect. It was said to be received in direct transmission to the Saptarishis (Seven great sages) in deep meditation. We follow the lineage of Adi Shakaracharya, who lived around 8th Century CE and known to be the revitaliser of this knowledge through his many commentaries.
Vedanta Amritam has been founded by Acharya Ravi Easwaran who is a disciple of Swami Paramarthananda (a direct disciple of Swami Dayananda). All acharyas (teachers) who are providing the classes here today belong to the same lineage.
